Shadow work is so real. I see why everyone doesn't go down this path. To truly heal, everything in need of healing within us must be revealed and brought into our conscious mind. That level of awareness is uncomfortable. Embracing vulnerability takes courage and inner strength.
Solitude is good for the soul and a form of self care that helps you better connect with yourself — it provides space to tune into your intuition, reflect and consider and moments of mindfulness that help you find alignment within the present moment.
Be intentional with how you conduct yourself, the type of life you want to live and move in alignment with those outcomes. Yet, cultivate an ability to surrender where you trust that life will give you exactly what is yours in a way that is perfectly suited to your development.
Sunrise walks, herbal teas, sun kissed, fresh lemonade, hardcover books, old buildings, farmers markets, high ceilings, moleskin notebooks, walking around the art gallery, warm croissants, reading in a park, day naps and long conversations w/ those you love — cherished & loved.
August is for Alignment.
August is for Awakenings.
August is for Abundance.
August is for Achievements.
August is for Adaptability.
August is for Admiration.
August is for Amusement.
You experience lasting change when you take responsibility for your life, have and uphold your standards, be unwavering in self respect, intentional with where you invest your time and energy and ultimately shift who you are on a fundamental level — new ways, new experiences.
Relationships are much sweeter when you and your partner are actual FRIENDS. You turn up together, gossip together, talk honestly, have fun, and generally vibe like besties. They shouldn’t replace your original friends but it’s great when your dynamic is more than just romantic.
Staying disciplined, enforcing boundaries, having standards, intentional self reflection, being honest with yourself, keeping your promises, prioritising your health, appreciating yourself, alchemising insecurities & a strong perception of self — self love essentials.
A persons beauty radiates from beyond their physical appearance — it's their character, their mannerisms, the way they treat others, how they speak to and treat those around them, the way in which their mind works, their perception of the world, how intrigued you are by them.
Enjoy your life as much as possible, do not let stressors overcome, learn from your challenges but don't let them crush your optimism, be grateful for another day of this beautiful life experience. Be mature in your mind but young at heart.
